BROTHERS FOUR lyrics : "Riders in the sky"

An old cowpoke went riding out one dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw

A'plowin' through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw

Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o

Ghost riders in the sky

Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were

made of steel
Their horns wuz black and shiny and their hot breaths
he could feel

A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered
through the sky
For he saw the riders comin' hard and he heard their

mournful cry

Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o

Ghost riders in the sky

Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, and shirts

all soaked with sweat
They're ridin' hard to catch that herd but they ain't
caught them yet

They've got to ride forever in that range up in the sky
On horses snortin' fire, as they ride on, hear their
cry


Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Ghost riders in the sky


As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his
name

If you want to save your soul from hell a' ridin' on
our range
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will

ride
A-tryin' to catch the Devil's herd across these endless
skies.


Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Ghost riders in the sky

Ghost riders in the sky
